I just wanted to say THANKS to Brett and all of you here. For those of you that can 'see' me lurking you know I have been taking advantage of the training material, and reading and checking the forum pretty regularly. The way people conduct themselves and help others here is most admirable as well as inspiring, and I believe such things start at the top. So, again, thanks for the site and all the top notch content you graciously provide.
